Description from the seller
Oil painting on Masonite “Capri” by Enrico Aprile
This painting depicts a panoramic view of the Capri coastline, created in Naples in 1981 as indicated by the signature on the back. The work captures the breathtaking beauty of the Italian coastal landscape, with the characteristic cliffs plunging into the sea and Mediterranean vegetation in the foreground.
